Best friends with your husband
Posted: Mon Apr 08, 2013 5:33 am
I dreamt I was in the CBD, and I seemed to be there for ages, running around doing stuff.
At first I was in a square. People all around. There was some sort of class, in a second floor room, that I was connected to. I recall a few people I knew from uni. One was Nicole. A girl got in trouble for doing something wrong, then she says 'why is it that I get in trouble when I do that, yet Nicole NEVER gets in trouble for the same thing'. It's like Nicole can get away with anything no matter how cheeky/naughty she is. (She's a bit like that IRL - everyone loves her.) So in the dream I start pondering 'yes, why does Nicole get away with it?'.
Then I see my friend Craig. He's running around. He's in a break from a meeting and he's downstairs in the square with me, checking everything ... his phone for messages, then he pulls the dipstick out of his car (can't see the car, just the dipstick) and it's really long and he and I both can see that the oil is getting low, but he says 'oh that's OK, there's enough to keep me going'. But I say 'Craig you need to put more oil in your car!'.
Then I leave and go somewhere close by which appears to be another lovely waiting area for the general public. (This time no resemblance to anything that exists). This area is covered in lovely dark cobble stone type tiles. There is a sunken area which runs along the side of a museum. Steps down to it, the kind of steps which alternate as seating. Like a large expanse of steps. EDIT * and a LARGE dark green fig tree for shade and beauty.
I'm waiting for my mother, who's inside this museum (I never see her in the dream). While I'm waiting I'm aware that I seem to have lost my skirt. A black tube skirt I have and wear all the time ... functional/practical/looks good. On the top part of me I'm wearing so many layers, that I can hardly see down to see if I'm wearing my skirt, so I'm FEELING for it. My tops are long enough that they cover most of what I want covered. I have a singlet top underneath, then maybe another shirt, but then a mac type raincoat thing on top. Still, not comfortable at having lost my skirt.
Then I start speaking to 2 ladies who are islander, with lovely curly hair (just like a girl I saw on tv last night, a girl who sang with passion). EDIT * singing 'Shy Guy'.
One of them says to me something about getting married, and tells me to refer to the Book of Ikea. And I'm thinking thinking 'book of Ikea - I don't recall that one'. Then I realise she must be joking, and her friend laughs and says she calls it that??? The woman that said that to me goes somewhere and I say to the other woman, can you find the scripture for me?
Then it turns out to be Deuteronomy. I read it and it says something about the lion roaring and that 'if you don't accept the man God has chosen for you to marry, then you are under a curse'. I find this odd and I re-read it and there must be more to the scripture because there's something about not idol worshipping your husband.
And I finally work it out that it's about coming under a curse if you put your husband above God. And I turn to the woman and say 'well that's a good reason why you should be best friends with your husband'. (As in, looking at him as a best friend rather than idolising him and putting him above God.)
[The thing is, IRL I don't believe we come under curses - Jesus IS the curse for us, but I get the importance of not idol worshipping.]

Nicole: means 'Victory of the people'
I believe the part of the dream about Craig is literal - sorry, not 'literal', but I believe it means he's needs to spend time with God getting refreshed.
I have NO IDEA what the 'Book of Ikea' is about.
Deuteronomy is all about the law.
Not sure what the part of idolising your husband is about, but I do understand what 'marrying your best friend' is about.
All I know about idolising your husband is that it's part of the Adamic Curse. And we don't have to revert to or put up with any of that stuff.
Any ideas what the Book of Ikea is about?
